Alexander isn't so bad. It can be shortened to Alex, but George? He should be given a good name.

Actually it's nice to see a young couple who seem to love each other and are so happy about their baby. Contrast that with Kim K and Kanye West.

With all the crap going on in the world, why do folks have to make nasty cracks about the new baby? I'd hate to think it's that old class envy thing. Obama and his minions engender enough of that stuff that we don't need to follow their lead.

Exactly. I don't care about the royal family most of the time. I haven't watched one royal wedding or funeral. I just like hearing about babies. I do feel badly for Kim and Kanye's kid though. First, look at what they named the poor child. Next, that baby's daddy had his teeth taken out and replaced with diamonds. With all the people out there who can't afford dental care, he used his money just do something freaky. Messed up.

For someone who doesn't want kids you sure are interested in others lol

No I am not in a dudgeon all the time, I just like picking on you, it makes my day.

Don't jump to conclusions. No one knows what the story is and not anyone's business. I have neighbors with no kids. She was an elementary school music teacher for years. I later found out that they desperately wanted kids, but it was not to be. Now they're helping put their nephew's son through college.

Linda don't jump on me for spelling or typos, trying to do my best. My right hand is still in a cast and hoping to be feed tomorrow by the doc. This has been miserable the last 3 weeks.

Sorry you're not doing well right now, and the spelling was fine!
My husband and I voluntarily passed on kids, as many people do. It doesn't make us abnormal in any way - people never used to be able to control whether children "appeared" or not, and now they can.
Now, if "picking on me" "makes Bailey's day", what does that say about how sad HIS life is?

I pray every day that Elizabeth outlives her eldest son. I would much rather see William become King when she passes then that troll. I also never want to see the troll's cow become "Queen Consort".

They could have done better than George, name-wise. Henry the 9th would be kind of cool.

Pretty chilly to wish for a mother to outlive her grown son.
If it helps you any, Camilla would/will be styled Princess Consort on Charles' succession, not Queen. Albert was Victoria's Prince Consort, not King - that's the precedent.

He can always go by Carlos Danger.

Isn't Charles the regimental colonel of one of the household cavalry units? I just assumed that Camilla was his mount.

Not that what he did to Diana was right. It wasn't. However, he never loved her. He was practically forced into that marriage. Oh, the joys of royalty. Not to mention he's done good with charities and environment. There's more to him than his worst self.
